Traffic

Create outstanding dashboards to see all your traffic in a simple glimpse

Transform your wireless network into a key for success

Just point your traffic probes to redborder and start gathering knowledge about your network. If you need more power, plug a new server into the cluster, in the Enterprise edition. redborder is the only horizontally scalable Open Source Netflow v9/ IPFIX collector.

Have a detailed usage and location profile for each user and device in your network that lasts as long as you can store it, putting exciting new opportunities at your fingertips.

Visualize traffic

redborder is compatible with Netflow v5/ v9, IPFIX and Flexible Netflow protocols - sFlow and jFlow upcoming - with full support to extension fields: Cisco’s AVC, Palo Alto AppID & UserID, allowing you to view your traffic in a scalable way.
redborder goes beyond static Netflow v5, and supports the more dynamic and information-rich Netflow v9 and IPFIX, allowing you to view L7, URL and User information details present in the flows.

Plug and Scale

Just point your traffic probes to redborder and start gathering knowledge about your network. If you need more power, plug a new server into the cluster, in the Enterprise edition. redborder is the only horizontally scalable Open Source Netflow v9/ IPFIX collector.

View

Create outstanding dashboards to see all your traffic at a glance. Automate the reports your boss is always asking for.
redborder graphic capabilities make it shine. L7 support (as reported by probes) and our enrichment guarantee that you won’t miss any details.

Analyze

If you need to investigate, just search the top usage by any field or metric. Filter as needed to focus on the relevant information.
See raw data, compare with the past or count distinct elements. Do all of this interactively and in real time, no matter the size of your network.

Contextualize

redborder enriches flows as they arrive to further extend their value. Be it relevant for security, positioning or marketing, get the most out of them.
Historical traffic profiles further help you to detect an anomaly or to evaluate the current situation by providing context.

Wireless localization

Beyond usage information, find out know how people move physically within your wireless infrastructure, either for technical or marketing reasons. redborder is compatible with Cisco’s MSE and Meraki’s CMX, with more to come: Aruba’s ALE, Xirrus, Ruckus Wireless, and Teldat.
This technology has been validated in a scenario as daunting as MWC, scaling from a shopping mall, a venue, or a stadium to a whole hotel chain or service provider.

Solve

Knowing how people move in your wireless environment and how they gather in hot spots will help you optimize your network deployment by rearranging access points more effectively. It will also help you to detect when they are saturating.
Give users better wireless service.

Know them

redborder can blend data from the wireless captive portal, loyalty program, or property management system to enrich location data with demographic information, further increasing its value by segmenting it with relevant marketing information.

Your Privacy

Privacy is a key concern in localization analytics and redborder is fully aware of this. Data is always anonymized and grouped by using hashes, in such a way that only global trends are accessible and individual data is not exposed.

Are your network's users happy? Evil?

Other localization analytics solutions exist. But the value of redborder comes from extending an already very valuable solution with other use cases not covered by other solutions in a single platform.
This allows you to detect security threats in your infrastructure or to analyze the success of a product launch during an event by exploring how visitors interact in social media without having to further invest in other products.

Cibersecurity

redborder improves the security of your wireless network in two ways: by enriching flow data with security context and by enabling you to deploy intrusion prevention systems. Soon we will be able to apply security policies directly in your wireless equipment.

Social interactivity

redborder includes a Social Visibility App, which can help you measure the success of an event through sentiment analysis of the iteration of your users in Twitter. Locate your users by geographic coordinates (event location), hashtags, and @user identification.
